PROBLEM STATEMENT:

·         Can we detect the leakage of gas, when we are out of home?

·         Can we automatically turn off the knob in the cylinder?

  When we are out of home, we can’t  able to detect the leakage of gas in our home. This is an serious issue and some lost their lives due to the bursting of the cylinder.  Can we solve this issue as an engineer?

SOLUTION:

                         The  solution  is “YES”,WE CAN . This problem can be solved by INTERNET OF THINGS.  By using this we can easily detect the leakage of gas. This reduces the number of fire  accidents due to  leakage in gas.

DESCRIPTION:

                     Mostly the leakage in the gas is due to the faulty regulator fitting, malfunctioning of rubber tubing etc..,  so the sensor which is used to detect the leakage in the gas is fitted on the cylinder near the regulator. If any leakage occurs the sensor will sense the gas and sends the information to the IBM bluemix. Then it measure the level of temperature in the room, and if it exceeds above 40 degree celcius it will send an alert message to us .

SENSORS USED:

1.      MQ-6 LPG FLAMMABLE GAS SENSOR . 

NODE-RED-LINK:

USAGE:

·         Easy detection of leakage in the gas through IOT.

·         Avoids the fire accidents due to the leakage in the gas.

FUTURE SCOPE:

                   In future we can detect the level of the gas based on the IOT. Moreover the gas usage is high everywhere. This is to monitor the weight of the LPG gas in the cylinder, if the gas is empty it will automatically report you to book for the another cylinder through IOT.
